Me, too! I am waiting for #6 so I can move most of #1 to it, and then almost all of my Garden can be, well, Garden!!!!

You'd be better off posting into the suggestions part of the forum.

Sallah, since I took the advice of the Dev's and stopped putting plots under my trees, I now have my trees in groups, and between them are my flowers on my Orchard farm.
So on the new farm we get, will make sure that the new flowers will be on there someway, somehow, and I'm wondering when we will get to make things with them in the FLOWER SHOP

Me too, and I'm not happy about it. Fix the Bulldozer!!!!

Just harvested my first farm that was fertilized. It worked great. I had about 900 squares of sugarcane planted and I got about 1800 from the harvest. The worker I hired didn't indicate one way or the other if he got double pay, so I don't know how things worked from that end.

Also, when I plowed and replanted, the farm is still fertilized just like it is supposed to be. So, especially with fast growing crops, you can get multiple plantings/harvests from one fertilization. Each fertilization is supposed to last 3 days. 50 pigs in a sty will get you 300 manure over a three day period. That will let you fertilize 6 farms (with each farm staying fertilized for 3 days). So, though the manure spreader is expensive, it is very efficient and worth every penny of the cost.

Oh yeah, if I understand correctly, as long as you fertilize before you harvest, your crop output will double. So, I think the best strategy would be to fertilize right before you harvest. That way the fertilization will last longer than if you fertilized as soon as you planted.

Great update.
I especially LOVE the improved drop-down-box options on the Storage items. Sooooo much easier when I go to Market!

Thanks!

I'm having the same problem ... don't understand why it's doing this.

Otherwise, I'm one happy farmer and I'm loving ALL the new stuff. Thanks for this update. Can't wait for the next one.

will we be able to hire to chop down trees in the future like fishing...

I want to say that I appreciate the new updates. The only problem is the big bulldozer doesn't appear to work since the latest update. Just wanted you to be aware...
